Ammonia-induced inhibition of manure-based continuous biomethanation process under different organic loading rates and associated microbial community dynamics
(2021)Three Continuously Stirred Tank Reactors (CTSRs) were operating at steady state conditions with Organic Loading Rates (OLR) of 2.09, 3.024 and 4.0 g VS L−1 d−1. Glucose was used as the sole factor for increasing the OLR, ... -
Assessment of the effects of oxamyl on the bacterial community of an agricultural soil exhibiting enhanced biodegradation
(2019)Modern agricultural practices largely rely on pesticides to protect crops against various pests and to ensure high yields. Following their application to crops a large amount of pesticides ends up in soil where they may ... -
Bacterial Communities and Antibiotic Resistance of Potential Pathogens Involved in Food Safety and Public Health in Fish and Water of Lake Karla, Thessaly, Greece
(2022)Bacterial communities, microbial populations, and antibiotic resistance of potential pathogens in the water and fish (Cyprinus carpio, flesh and gut) from different areas (A1, A2 and A3—A1 was linked with river water, A2 ... -
Bacterial communities and potential spoilage markers of whole blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) stored under commercial simulated conditions
(2019)Bacterial communities composition using 16S Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) profile of whole blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus) stored at 4 and 10 °C (proper and abuse temperature) ... -
Beyond the Microbiome: Germ-ganism? An Integrative Idea for Microbial Existence, Organization, Growth, Pathogenicity, and Therapeutics
(2022)The advances made by microbiome research call for new vocabulary and expansion of our thinking in microbiology. For example, the life-forms presenting in both unicellular and multicellular formats invite us to rethink ... -
Discovery Strategies of bioactive compounds synthesized by nonribosomal peptide synthetases and type-I polyketide synthases derived from marine microbiomes
(2016)Considering that 70% of our planet's surface is covered by oceans, it is likely that undiscovered biodiversity is still enormous. A large portion of marine biodiversity consists of microbiomes. They are very attractive ... -
Effects of protease addition and replacement of soybean meal by corn gluten meal on the growth of broilers and on the environmental performances of a broiler production system in Greece
(2017)An experimental study was conducted to examine the combined effects of adding a dietary protease, reducing the levels of soybean meal (SBM) and introducing corn gluten meal (CGM) in the ration of a group of broilers reared ... -
Elevated salivary IgA, decreased anxiety, and an altered oral microbiota are associated with active participation on an undergraduate athletic team
(2017)Background Previous reports indicate that regular, but not excessive, exercise can moderate the response to anxiety and alter the immune response, therefore we hypothesized that college student athletes who were actively ... -
Evidence of Brucella melitensis DNA in the Microbiome of Ctenocephalides felis from Pet Cats in Greece
(2020)Cat fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) are the most prevalent ectoparasites of pet animals with cosmopolitan distribution, obligatory hematophagous, and may prey on humans to receive bloodmeals. We studied the microbiota of 100 ... -
Factors Structuring the Epiphytic Archaeal and Fungal Communities in a Semi-arid Mediterranean Ecosystem
(2021)The phyllosphere microbiome exerts a strong effect on plants’ productivity, and its composition is determined by various factors. To date, most phyllosphere studies have focused on bacteria, while fungi and especially ... -
From microbiome to infectome in autoimmunity
(2017)Purpose of review The current review discusses the pros and cons of the microbiome studies conducted in search of the association between microbiota and autoimmunity. Recent findings We focus on the role of infectome and ... -
From warrior genes to translational solutions: novel insights into monoamine oxidases (MAOs) and aggression
(2021)The pervasive and frequently devastating nature of aggressive behavior calls for a collective effort to understand its psychosocial and neurobiological underpinnings. Regarding the latter, diverse brain areas, neural ... -
Grape pomace improves performance, antioxidant status, fecal microbiota and meat quality of piglets
(2018)In the present study, grape pomace (GP) was used as feed additive in the diet of weaned piglets in order to develop innovative feedstuffs and to investigate their potential beneficial effects on welfare, productivity and ... -
Host-associated bacterial succession during the early embryonic stages and first feeding in farmed gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata)
(2019)One of the most widely reared fish in the Mediterranean Sea is Sparus aurata. The succession of S. aurata whole-body microbiota in fertilized eggs, five, 15, 21 and 71 days post hatch (dph) larvae and the contribution of ... -
HRM and 16S rRNA gene sequencing reveal the cultivable microbiota of the European sea bass during ice storage
(2020)The total cultivable microbiota of the ice-stored European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax), the most important commercial fish species of the Mediterranean aquaculture, was determined using 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. ... -
Innovative Use of Olive, Winery and Cheese Waste By-Products as Functional Ingredients in Broiler Nutrition
(2022)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dietary use of novel silage that was created by combining three agro-industrial wastes produced in bulk, i.e., olive mill wastewater, grape pomace, and deproteinized feta cheese ... -
Interaction between microbiome and host genetics in psoriatic arthritis
(2018)Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory joint disease, seen in combination with psoriasis. Both genetic and environmental factors are responsible for the development of PsA, however little is known about the ... -
Irrigation of radish (Raphanus sativus L.) with microcystin-enriched water holds low risk for plants and their associated rhizopheric and epiphytic microbiome
(2020)Microcystins (MCs) are toxins produced during cyanobacterial blooms. They reach soil and translocated to plants through irrigation of agricultural land with water from MC-impacted freshwater systems. To date we have good ... -
